St. Bernardus Tripel is a traditional abbey beer that follows the classic tripel style. In the Watou region a tripel is often referred to as a ‘Bernadetje’. A fine tribute that pays homage to Bernadette, the youngest daughter of Evariste Deconinck, the man to whom the monks of Abbaye Sainte Marie du Mont des Cats sold their Belgian property in 1934. St. Bernardus Tripel is a blonde beer with an inviting golden hue and an impressive, velvety-soft head of froth. EBC 13.

33 cl bottle from Labirratorium, served in a Leffe chalice. It pours a hazy dark golden with an ephemerous off-white head. You love my English, and you know it. Aroma is bread, cardamom, coriander, yeast, lemon, some unidentified balm, and... white chocolate. Yep. Slick, dry and medium carbonated to start with. Midpalate it gets oily, balanced and it displays a lovely acidity. Nice metal touches leading to a long-lasting, bitter finish. Boy, is this a good tripel.

0.33 l bottle in front of Goblet Beer Store, Zagreb. Aroma is yeasty, spicy, lemony, coriander, grainy malts, pear and some banana. Medium to full body, soft carbonation, creamy texture. Fruity flavour, peach, banana, cloves, biscuit. Light but lasting, dry and spicy finish.

Bottle from the Packie, surprised I haven't rated this. Lightly hazy light gold in color with a huge frothy white head that slowly recedes. Sweet honey like maltiness with earthy floral hops light citrus fruit earthy funk and light alcohol.

0.33 bottle. Opálos arany sárga szín, laza fehér hab, elég szénsavasnak tűnik. Illata egy fűszeresebb, édes pezsgőé, fűszeres, intenzív. Pezsgősen szénsavas korty. Fűszeres, konyakos alkoholos, testes,kandiscukros. Komoly ital, de ittam már jobb triple-t. Egy vékonyka hab végig megmaradt az erős szensavnak is köszönhetően. Ahogy melegszik, szellőzik, finomabb, több íz érezhető, még komlósság is.

Opaque golden yellow color, loose white foam, looks quite carbonated. It smells like a spicier, sweet champagne, spicy, intense. Sizzling champagne. Spicy, cognac alcoholic, full-bodied, candy sugar. Serious drink, but I've already drunk a better triple. A thin foam remained throughout throughout, thanks to strong strong acid. As it warms up, ventilates, it is more delicate, more flavors can be felt, even hops.

Golden beer, white head. bready, lightly zesty aroma. Flavour has some zestiness too, a little boozy warmth, slightly floral. Good strong flavour and doesn't have the sickliness that comes with the lesser examples of the style in the finish. Lovely stuff.

Kind of disappointed with this. I've had it many times before and I don't know if I've changed or it's changed or what but it wasn't just as good this time. Not bad just not great. Average head and dirty dishwater appearance. Aromas of wet grain, toffee, and a little dark fruit. Flavors can pick up the candy sugar sweet up front with a little bitter coming on okay body and finish.
